Burgundy
Lips

As seen at Gucci’s fall ‘13 runway show, this shade
is nothing short of chic.Apply
this purple-y hue in a gloss to enhance the volume of your pout.We love Jane’s
Intense Color Lip Gloss because it goes on smooth and is fortified with
Vitamin E and moisture-rich ingredients to deliver high pigment,
head-turning hues. For only $7, it is the perfect way to achieve this season's must-have mulberry mouth.

New
Neutrals

The top trends on the catwalk this season are neutral
lacquers that compliment the nail beds and visually lengthen the finger.We are talking warm buffs, taupes and
soft grays that provide a welcome respite from the flood of super darks that
are everywhere this season.We
recommend stocking up on Physicians

high-performance color dries quickly and provides chip-resistant color from the
runway to the real world, so you can always have a glossy, glam finish. This power pack is comprised of
snap-in, stackable bottles, so you can keep them in your purse for organized
touch ups on-the-go. At only $10, you'll buy one to store in every bag in your collection.
